You all know I have my quirks, right? - Memorize Your Lines and Try Not To Bump Into the Furniture.

And never let them cough.

Life's like a play: it's not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters. ~Seneca

“For an actress to be a success, she must have the face of Venus, the brains of Minerva, the grace of Terpsichore, the memory of Macaulay, the figure of Juno, and the hide of a rhinoceros.” ~Ethel BarrymoreI'm Carrie Leigh... a wife, mother, actress, teacher, writer, daughter, sister, aunt and friend. I love cooking, reading, baking, Jesus, sewing, theatre, blueberries, and watching complete seasons of television shows on DVD. Not necessarily in that order.

I don't like dolphins, woodland creatures on the whole, celery, wrinkly things in baked goods (if there are brown chunks it needs to be chocolate or nuts), tapioca pudding, or gourds of any kind.

Gourds... like pumpkins, squashes, zucchini, the melon family, etc. Don't bring it around here. We'll not have it. (Well, my family might. But since I'm the head cook, grocery shopper and bottle washer, I speak for all three of the boys and myself.)

I think pumpkin pie is an aberration of nature. To quote my sister, "I think people should make dessert out of something that is, oh, I don't know, NOT a vegetable."

Preach it, Em.

SO when Mom sent me this, she knew I'd think it was freaking hysterical.

HOW PUMPKIN PIES ARE MADESEE?! Pumpkin pies are Jack-o-lantern poop. Eat 'em at your own risk.

I'm not big on punkins either. Nor gourds of any kind unless I am throwing them at something, i.e. mailboxes, or at the enemy. Tapioca pudding...eh. I am however a fan of dolphins because they aren't scared of sharks and the entertainment value that they provide to the world as well as our honeymoon. Celery is UUMMM, UUMMM, good especially during the holiday season as an appetizer with some sort of cheese spread. I especially love woodland creatures. If I know my wife she has written about my reasons on this subject.
